Eastern Hognose Snake

Heterodon platirhinos)

Description:

This snake was about 1.5m long. It's flaring its hood to try and scare me off. We are at the northern edge of their range and they are considered a species at risk here although they are more common further south.

Habitat:

Rocky outcrop amid mixed forest.
